473 Comments for Mission Hill Convent

Thank you so much for taking these photos. I live across the street from this and always wondered what it looked like inside.

Today is the first time I noticed all the red jelly beans.

SO SAD. Remember it well.I played in Pilates Daughter on the stage of St.Amphibians Hall for many years.

The, "CAMBRIDGE" fingered out in the stairwell dust, is most likely referring to the city next door to Boston. That's where I live.

will it possible to visit on the grounds

would it be possible to visit inside / or permission to be on the grounds

Whoa...did you see that? The eyes just moved. I'm getting a House of Wax feel to this gentleman. Eerie.

Dirty thoughts come to mind...

Maybe the ladies decided to finally get rid of all that ignored body hair in one fell swoop as a gesture of rebellion before vacating the premises...

looks like a 'possum.

Is Mission Hill Convent currently abandoned? Am traveling to Boston and would like to photograph.

Such a bummer we let beautifully designed buildings like this decay. This place would make a lovely apartment building or something!

Yeah, Cyber, I´d love to make something beautiful out of all those doors too. Wonder why they ARE there. An idea that failed?

YES, - autoguy - look at the hinges, they were double doors, and maybe even with leaded stained + colored GLASS?

No, Darlene - no doorknobs in Sweden! We always use a door handle. Sometimes they are very pretty too. Decorated ornate + wrought brass or iron in old house...
But methinks - nothing beats A Crystal Doorknob = fact.
